Hi, Thanks. First, there is no compat-gcc with the exactly the same as Fedora Core 6. Second, I want to be able to build modules for Fedora Core 6 on a Fedora Core 9 machines. I have installed a Feodra Core 6 kernel on a Fedora core 9 machine, However, when building the module for FC6 on FC9, and trying to insmod it on the FC6 machine, I get an error telling it was built with the wrong gcc. So i want to build the module with the Fedora Core 6 gcc. Any ideas what should I do ? Regards, Mark On Mon, Jun 16, 2008 at 4:35 PM, David C.
